Today is one of those days where the thoughts, “life is but a series of distractions” occupy my head. I think it’s the combination of a peaceful, rainy cool weather, boredom and from watching a dark depressing series (Hellbound) lol
But I truly think so.
If we’re in the hunter-gatherer or earlier ages of humanity, our concern would lie on everyday survival in the wilderness.
Today you’re just bound by societal milestones _ growing up, learning, working, starting a family and growing old. Most stages repetitive, varied only by these distractions in the form of trends or new hobbies or current news.
What differs is your ability to pursue these. The amount of effort you can and want to invest in them. How fulfilled you find doing any of it.
The distractions are welcomed lest the mundanity sets in. This is when the rather annoying “living just to pay bills” thoughts come around.
My 9-to-5 and the people I see on my workweek. Cat, all his amusing antics and caring for him. Spending or chatting with my family and closest relations. My obsession for fashionable and bling bling stuff. My love for reading and scrolling through TikToks. Exercising. Exploring new trends. Leaving a legacy. Environmental cause. Personal Finance. World peace (shitlah auto suggest said world w*r wtf).
What’s your present distractions like?
Just a random thoughts I want to put out. Is this like a growing old thingy? 😂 Will get back to the money matters soon!
Meanwhile Cat is seeking attention. He’s my favourite distraction today 😌
